Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe and Rolf Aldag have mutually decided to end their collaboration at the end of this month following the Tour de France success.
Since 2022, Rolf Aldag has played a significant role in shaping the team's sporting development. With his tireless commitment, experience, and passion, he was crucial in transforming Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe into a Grand Tour powerhouse. The team's standout results during this period include winning the 2022 Giro d'Italia, a triumph at the 2024 Vuelta a España, as well as a podium finish and the White Jersey at the 2025 Tour de France.
"Rolf took responsibility during a transition period and helped advance our team both athletically and structurally. We are deeply grateful for his dedication. He has left a lasting impact, both sportingly and personally," said Ralph Denk, CEO of Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe, acknowledging their time together. This chapter now closes as we have achieved our goals, but the journey we traveled together has been remarkable. Rolf was instrumental in shaping our team: it was a period characterized by determination and a deep passion for cycling. We look back on these years with great respect and gratitude and sincerely wish Rolf all the best for what lies ahead. For the next chapter of our story, we have jointly decided to give new momentum and take a new direction."
Rolf Aldag: "With the White Jersey victory and Florian Lipowitz's podium at this year's Tour de France, we have achieved the goals we set four years ago. Consequently, we have jointly decided that now is the right time for both parties to pursue new challenges. My period with Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe has been deeply formative, both personally and professionally. Together, we successfully navigated the complex transition from a sprint-focused team to one built to excel in stage races and celebrated great victories, always with a clear vision in mind. I am proud of what we have achieved as a team. Now is the time to embark on a new path. I wish the team continued success and all the best for the future."
